Boy, you got an imagination. I have horror stories that can get too graphic for little urchins. Certain books on the less sterling side of history. One or two semi-naughty tales. All from the Gutenberg project.
It's not that they aren't legally old enough. It's just that my sister will make ME do the explaining.
Life is just simpler this way.

The dictionary is important. It can't be abridged or limited. One of a few thousand words is useless. 200,000 plus, I say. Oxford English Dictionary, include that!

Ok thanks for the feedback. Maybe the jetBook Plus will have a more complicated dictionary. They used allot of the feedback here to make it so we will have to see the full functionality of the device when it is released in a month or so.

Hey Jerry, do you know whether non schoolers will be able to buy it, and how much it's going to cost?

Hey,
Thanks for the question. The jetBook + will be for the general public and will be the new version of the jetBook JB-5. Not sure on the price but if i had to guess i would say anywhere between $139 - $169. The jetBook K-12 will the the school version. I would sure hope they make it available to the public or they can miss out on allot of opportunities. I think for one unit it would be around $399.95. Also for classroom sets (25 pcs or more) the price should drop significantly to about $249.95.
We will be offering discounts for small orders placed through schools. The customer would have to prove credentials. If you know someone who knows someone whose aunts friends sister works in a school we cant really give a discount
